Here, we have used a humanized CAR/PXR mouse model to examine potential species differences in receptor-dependent mechanisms underlying liver tissue molecular responses to PB. Early and late transcriptomic responses to sustained PB exposure were investigated in liver tissue from double knock-out CAR and PXR (CARᴷᴼ-PXRᴷᴼ), double humanized CAR and PXR (CARʰ-PXRʰ), and wild-type C57BL/6 mice. Wild-type and CARʰ-PXRʰ mouse livers exhibited temporally and quantitatively similar transcriptional responses during 91 days of PB exposure including the sustained induction of the xenobiotic response gene Cyp2b10, the Wnt signaling inhibitor Wisp1, and noncoding RNA biomarkers from the Dlk1-Dio3 locus. Transient induction of DNA replication (Hells, Mcm6, and Esco2) and mitotic genes (Ccnb2, Cdc20, and Cdk1) and the proliferation-related nuclear antigen Mki67 were observed with peak expression occurring between 1 and 7 days PB exposure. All these transcriptional responses were absent in CARᴷᴼ-PXRᴷᴼ mouse livers and largely reversible in wild-type and CARʰ-PXRʰ mouse livers following 91 days of PB exposure and a subsequent 4-week recovery period. Furthermore, PB-mediated upregulation of the noncoding RNA Meg3, which has recently been associated with cellular pluripotency, exhibited a similar dose response and perivenous hepatocyte-specific localization in both wild-type and CARʰ-PXRʰ mice. Thus, mouse livers coexpressing human CAR and PXR support both the xenobiotic metabolizing and the proliferative transcriptional responses following exposure to PB.}, language = {en} } @article{TeumerCapitainRossJonesetal.2018, author = {Teumer, Tobias and Capitain, Charlotte and Ross-Jones, Jesse and Tippk{\"o}tter, Nils and R{\"a}dle, Matthias and Methner, Frank-J{\"u}rgen}, title = {In-line Haze Monitoring Using a Spectrally Resolved Back Scattering Sensor}, series = {BrewingScience}, volume = {71}, journal = {BrewingScience}, number = {5/6}, publisher = {Fachverlag Hans Carl}, address = {N{\"u}rnberg}, issn = {1613-2041}, pages = {49 -- 55}, year = {2018}, abstract = {In the present work an optical sensor in combination with a spectrally resolved detection device for in-line particle-size-monitoring for quality control in beer production is presented. The principle relies on the size and wavelength dependent backscatter of growing particles in fluids. Measured interference structures of backscattered light are compared with calculated theoretical values, based on Mie-Theory, and fitted with a linear least square method to obtain particle size distributions. For this purpose, a broadband light source in combination with a process-CCD-spectrometer (charge ? coupled device spectrometer) and process adapted fiber optics are used. The goal is the development of an easy and flexible measurement device for in-line-monitoring of particle size. The presented device can be directly installed in product fill tubes or vessels, follows CIP- (cleaning in place) and removes the need of sample taking. A proof of concept and preliminary results, measuring protein precipitation, are presented.}, language = {en} } @misc{RossJonesTeumerCapitainetal.2018, author = {Ross-Jones, Jesse and Teumer, Tobias and Capitain, Charlotte and Tippk{\"o}tter, Nils and Krause, Mathias J. and Methner, Frank-J{\"u}rgen and R{\"a}dle, Matthias}, title = {Analytical methods for in-line characterization of beer haze}, series = {Trends in Brewing}, journal = {Trends in Brewing}, year = {2018}, abstract = {In most beers, producers strive to minimize haze to maximize visual appeal.

Microscopy analysis is time and resource intensive; alternatively, backscattering is an inexpensive option for detecting particle sizes of interest.}, language = {en} }
